    What will a tiler do and not do!

    Hi, I'm wondering what, as a tiler, you would expect to do when you go to a job. Do you prepare the walls for tiling? remove toilets? Take out sockets? I'm sure its different for everyone but I was wondering what is ok to say no to and what to expect.

    Lithofin grout sealer not living up to expectations

    I've just painstakingly scrubbed/cleaned my kitchen tiles (& grout) with Lithofin Power Clean MN, which did a great job. Bought some Lithofin grout sealer to finish off the job, which is proving to be really disappointing &, in all honesty, a waste of £20. After 2 coats (& sore knees), and...
